Re: Lee Enfield conversions
Nice wood for lee enfield is going to be strictly a custom proposition from a hand stock maker... Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 3 grand, just for the labor, wood and checkering is going to cost extra.

Re: Lee Enfield conversions
It feels like no one is entering into the spirit of this thread.
So, my question is, which conversion, in the end, would make you smile the most when you shoot it?
Do that one.

Re: Lee Enfield conversions
Technically, and Enfield IS a DBM, butter.. the magazines aren't really meant to be removed - ive heard that they often require fitting...
Go reread what cc wrote - he wanted to convert one of them to 308.. and take M1a mags.

.45-70 probably. And they sell mags for them. Just gotta do the barrel. The other thought was .458 Lott but maybe it is not strong enough.blackeagle603 wrote: ↑Wed May 05, 2021 4:40 pmSo, my question is, which conversion, in the end, would make you smile the most when you shoot it?
